Chapter 2336
He could still hear the eight-tailed snake’s painful roars in his ear. Jackie’s hands were trembling, momentarily
forgetting the pain inflicted by his injuries from the tail strike. Instead, he looked up at the eight-tailed demonic
snake that was struggling.
At that moment, Destroying the Void had destroyed most of the eight-tailed demonic snake’s soul. It could no
longer think and could only struggle with its instincts.
Struggling against its own life slipping away, its roars shook Jackie’s ears. However, Jackie did not cover his ears and
merely stared with widened eyes at the eight-tailed demonic snake.
After struggling for a while, the eight-tailed demonic snake’s soul was finally completely extinguished. Its roars
stopped abruptly as the spectators looked on, stunned.
Under everyone’s gazes, the gigantic eight-tailed demonic snake collapsed on the ground.
With a loud bang, the massive body caused the ground to shake. Dust blew as it temporarily obscured everyone’s
vision. At that moment, everyone’s mouths were slightly wide open, not knowing what to say.

In truth, that battle had not lasted that long. The spectators had yet to understand what was happening even
though Jackie’s last attack at the eight -tailed demonic snake was not obvious but it was deadly!
“It died just like that?” Samson’s lips trembled slightly, his eyes widened so much that they threatened to jump out
of their sockets.
The others were incredibly anxious. “It should be dead! However, can anyone tell me how it died?
“It looked like Jackie merely shifted his attacking point, and that eight-tailed snake’s impenetrable defense suddenly
crumbled like paper. Jackie defeated it in one blow! After that, the snake struggled and roared for a few seconds
before it died!”

That person’s words left the others and himself in disbelief. The others looked up at the eight-tailed demonic
snake’s corpse, slightly stunned.
Isaiah looked over at Nelson and said, “How did Jackie do that? How did the eight-tailed demonic snake’s defense
crumble so quickly…”
Nelson was a chosen disciple who was close to the top of the rankings. Even though he was from a third -grade
clan, he was still quite experienced.
He took a deep breath and said in a serious tone,” Just now when Jackie attacked its back, it was not due to any
miscalculations on his part. He attacked it knowing that it was the most defended part.
“He did so to attract the snake’s attention. He wanted the snake to think that Jackie was doing so out of stupidity,
just like everyone else did! That Jackie lacked experience!”
After listening to Nelson’s explanation, Isaiah finally understood. He turned around and clutched Nelson’s arm
anxiously.
“You mean that Jackie knew where the eight-tailed snake’s weakness was from the start! The eight-tailed demonic
snake’s defense did not suddenly crumble. It was just that Jackie attacked directly at the eight-tailed demonic
snake’s weak point?”
Nelson nodded. He had faith in his eyes. He could see that Jackie attacked at a very special spot earlier. The scale
that Jackie attacked had been slightly different In color from the other scales. If he did not look at it I n detail, he
would not have noticed!
Benjamin’s hands trembled slightly. Since Nelson had noticed, he would have as well. He could not help but shake
his head.

“Sure enough, we can’t underestimate masters like this. Even though masters are sometimes hard to understand,
it’s just because we don’t understand them, and not because they’re dumb!”
Chapter 2337
After finishing his words, he shook his head, sighing. He felt the gap between him and Jackie growing wider and
wider. At the start, Benjamin had thought that Jackie’s actions were amusing and that he was inexperienced
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo matter how strong he was, he might still have moments of failure. Instead, it seemed like what he thought was
Jackie’s inexperience was actually just him not knowing Jackie well enough.
The northern clan disciples were all full of deep admiration for Jackie despite their surprise. They were still
composed, after all, they were in the same camp as Jackie. However, the Corpse Pavilion was different.
The Corpse Pavilion’s disciples had a depressed look on their faces. The masked man’s hands were clenched tightly.
Due to how much force he was using, his muscles were bulging tightly as well. At that moment, he had been dealt a
huge blow.
Even Nelson had seen through what had happened, let alone the masked man. The masked man had naturally
managed to see through that Jackie’s actions were merely to trick the eight-tailed demonic snake, concealing his
final attack.
If that meant Jackie lacked experience, then the rest of them amounted to nothing!
Jackie had attacked in an incredibly unique way! If the masked man was not Jackie’s enemy, the masked man would
probably have praised him!
“That brat! I definitely can’t allow him to live. He can’t be allowed to leave this place alive!” The masked man’s
raspy voice was incredibly resolved.
At that moment, he completely understood what he had to do. If he let Jackie leave the Hidden Place for Resources,
he would be facing an incredibly large threat in the future.
Jackie’s relationship with him was already bad to begin with, and he had killed so many of Jackie’s fellow disciples.
Jackie would definitely be a threat to the Corpse Pavilion when he grows stronger. The first person Jackie would look
to kill would be him!
He could absolutely not let something like that happen. Before, the masked man merely hated Jackie but did not
feel as threatened as he did at that moment. However, after witnessing this scene, he felt like Jackie was a ticking
time bomb!
When Lennon heard the masked man’s words, he had a moment of realization. He had been like the others, stuck
in their surprise. After all, he had witnessed the masked man’s fight against the eight tailed demon snake for
himself.
The masked man had used everything he had, and still ended up heavily injured when he dealt with the eight-tailed
demonic snake. Furthermore, he had taken much longer than Jackie to defeat the snake!
Compared to the masked man’s battle, Jackie seemed to have ended it faster and easier. That was even despite
the fact that Jackie had been incredibly unlucky to get hit by the eight-tailed demonic snake at the last moment.
However, compared to the heavily injured masked man, Jackie’s plan seemed perfect. The gap between the two of
them had been displayed for everyone to see right there!
To the masked man, Jackie was already a gigantic threat that could not be ignored. He could understand the
masked man’s worry and fear!
He could not help but frown, he had to say what he was afraid of saying before, “You have to quickly recover. When
you get back to the Divine Void Slope, you have to do everything you can’t. We can’t let him leave the top.
“It’s not just because he can obtain those treasures. If he grows stronger, he’ll definitely be a huge threat to the
Corpse Pavilion, he might even be able to unite the West Cercie State!”
Chapter 2338 Lennon’s last words were like a massive stone being thrown into calm waters. Everyone was stunned
when they heard those words and had a look on their faces that looked like they wanted to die.
Zamian’s face was pale, and veins even appeared on his eyes, “Lennon… Aren’t you exaggerating things a little?
This guy can unite West Cercie State?
“Is he really capable of doing that? It’s been so many years, and the northern clans have definitely had their
masters. However, none of the masters have ever been so powerful! Something no one has been able to do for so
many years, are you sure this guy can?”
Lennon glanced at Zamian. Normally, he would not have bothered to explain something like this to Zamian.
However, it was a special time, and if he did not make things clear, those people would not understand the severity
of the situation.
Lennon’s voice was very deep, as if he was announcing something incredibly painful, “Use your brains a little,
please just think about it. Even though the northern clans have had their masters all these years. In so many years,
not a single one of them had really been able to threaten the Corpse Pavilion.
“Think about it, can those so-called masters compare to Jackie? Don’t forget, Jackie is currently only at the
intermediate stage of the innate level.
“I paid special attention to Jackie before this, and I’ve asked Griffin about Jackie as well. That guy had only been at
the initial stage of the innate level and it didn’t take him long to reach the intermediate stage!
“Which master can defeat another master at the late stage of the innate level when they’re only in the
intermediate stage? The gap between one master and another is usually not that much different.
“However, this guy can battle across stages! He’s even so much stronger than those of us who thought we were
masters.”
At that moment, Lennon’s tone was a little depressed. The others fell silent after hearing that. Lennon was right.
There were differences between masters, but it was rarely so large of a gap.
Fighting across stages was something that would not happen between absolute masters, but Jackie had managed to
do it. Jackie had done something no one had been able to do so in many years.
Then when he grows stronger, he would naturally threaten the Corpse Pavilion. Not even the masked man could
retort at that moment, because the masked man knew that Lennon was right!
The masked man took a deep breath, and after shutting his eyes momentarily, he said in a somber tone, “Everyone
shut up! You’re not allowed to praise others to diminish yourself!
“He’s definitely a master, but masters who have yet to mature can only live by the mercy of others. He’s not a
threat yet!”
After that, the Corpse Pavilion was once again in a strange silence. They were no idiots. They naturally knew what
the masked man meant, and that he would kill Jackie at all costs!
After another boom, the eight-tailed demonic snake’s corpse suddenly glowed in colorful light. Under Jackie’s
surprised look, the colorful lights slowly disappeared, and the eight-tailed snake’s corpse disappeared in the light.
In the end, the light all gathered into a pill the size of a grape! When the pill appeared, the smell of blood around
him had suddenly disappeared, and the deep smell of medicine assaulted his nose.
Jackie widened his eyes abruptly, unable to stop himself from saying, “Ninth-grade soul refining pill!
Chapter 2339 It was the first time Jackie had seen a pill that was of such a high grade. If he took it back to the clan
in exchange for points, he would absolutely be able to get over ten thousand points.
After all, refining a pill like that would not only need ninth-grade spirited grass and other valuable natural treasures,
it would also need an incredibly high-ranked alchemist. The alchemist would have to refine it for several days, that
was how valuable it was!
Jackie’s excited eyes started to glow. He withstood the pain in his bones as he stumbled to stand up. He hobbled
over to the pill that was floating in the air.
The pill was more valuable to Jackie than anyone else. A spirit refining pill meant that it could help train his soul. It
would enhance the level and quality of his soul, and increase the control a person had over souls!
Thinking about that, Jackie’s hands started to shake. He took a deep breath as he forced himself to calm down. He
retrieved a jade box from Mustard Seed and placed the pill gently inside, making sure not to harm the pill’s effects.
In front of everyone, he placed the soul refining pill into his storage space. When Benjamin and the others
witnessed the scene, their eyes watered, and could not help but say in exasperation, “It’s a ninth grade pill! A ninth-
grade pill is even more valuable than an Earth Ranked martial skill. Ninth-grade pills have been known to double a
person’s potential! It’s a pity, but I’ve only seen such a thing, and have never obtained one!”
After listening to that, the others added, “No wonder masters improve exponentially. We’ll never be able to stand up
against these masters.
“Failing against them only means they’ll continue soaring up, while we continue to be stuck in one place! Only
masters can gain even more resources for themselves… We can’t compete at all!”
Those words were exactly what everyone else had been thinking. They could not help but nod in agreement, and
everyone shot looks of envy at Jackie. Jackie did not hear those words at all.
At that moment, he was already planning how he would deal with the masked man when he went back to the Divine
Void Slope. Thinking about the masked man’s cold and arrogant face, Jackie’s anger could not help but surge.
Even though he always had a calm and uncaring expression when he dealt with the masked man, Jackie definitely
wanted the masked man to die!
Thinking about Riv’s cold face, as well as the other disciples that died in the hands of the masked man, he wanted
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmto skin that man alive. Jackie knew very well that the masked man probably thought the same about him as well.
Both sides definitely wanted the other side to die. At that moment, a wail of agony was heard.
Jackie looked over and could see a completely bloodied figure soar across the air. The figure landed heavily on the
ground not far from Jackie with a boom!
That person’s clothes were stained with blood, if not for the fact that his chest was still moving, Jackie would have
thought that the person was dead!
Jackie frowned slightly as he shouted, “Graham, you should admit defeat, or you’ll die.”
Those words sounded cold, but it was out of sincere concern. When Graham heard Jackie’s words, he coughed
viciously, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Chapter 2340
At that moment, he was more injured than the masked man was. He tried using his arm to force his body to sit up,
but after trying a few times, he fell back on the floor with a thud.
He could hear the roar of the snake on the other side. He knew that the eight-tailed demonic snake was about to
attack him again!
He was seriously injured, but his mind was incredibly clear. Even though Jackie had finished speaking, Jackie’s words
kept on repeating over and over in his head.
Just as the eight-tailed snake was about to use another tail to strike, Graham used the last of his strength to shout,
“I surrender!”
In truth, he did not know if the eight-tailed demonic snake would stop its attack after he surrendered. After all, that
old voice said that death existed in the blood world.
However, he still had to gamble no matter what! At that moment, the hearts of all the northern clan disciples
stopped, about to jump out of their throats. They did not want to see Graham’s bloodied form.
After all, if Graham died, it would leave only Jackie behind. They were not willing to gamble on Jackie being able to
carry them through.
Some of them loudly shouted, “What do we do? Should we rush inside to save Graham?! We can’t let that snake
continue attacking, or Graham will definitely die!”
“Didn’t we tell Graham not to force things earlier?! If he had just stopped when he felt like he could no longer take
it, he would at least have been able to save himself, but now…”
However, those words were merely helpless ramblings. Jackie furrowed his eyebrows. Even though he was not that
fond of Graham, they were still in the same camp at that moment.
If Graham really died, he would have to withstand the pressure from the Corpse Pavilion himself. Just as he
tightened his fists and planned on trying to break through the barrier to save Graham, the snake’s tail suddenly
stopped.
It was as if a button had been pushed, and it stopped two meters in front of Graham. At that moment, Graham had
already broken out in cold sweat, the salty sweat reminding him that he had almost died!
Under everyone’s bated breaths, the eight-tailed demonic snake slowly retracted its tail, reverting back into its
arrogant state, ignoring all. It had stopped attacking Graham.
Graham felt his body get lighter, and familiar energy once again stuck to his body. His vision blurred, and when he
opened his eyes again, he was already outside the barrier.
Standing next to him was Jackie. Jackie frowned, leaning down to help Graham up, helping him adopt a sitting
posture.
He then turned around to look at Benjamin and the others, “Why aren’t you coming over?!”
When Benjamin and the others heard that, they hurriedly ran over. The other twenty-odd people had very serious
looks on their faces. Benjamin took out a pill from his storage ring and fed it to Graham.
Graham forced himself to swallow it, and the warmth of the medicine slowly entered his body. It went through his
broken veins, and slowly repaired his internal injuries.
However, Graham’s injuries had been far too severe. Even though his condition was stabilized for the moment, he
still needed more time to recover.
Graham seemed to be in an incredibly bad state like he would run out of breath at any moment. Benjamin pursed
his lips helplessly. Even though he knew he should not utter those words, he could not hold back.
